Blocking toxic effects could make clot-buster safer

...onse to a blood clot," says Manuel Yepes, MD, PhD, assistant professor of neurology at Emory University School of Medicine. "But it's clearly not just lysing the clot." Doctors in community hospitals can often be reluctant to administer tPA to patients who appear to be having a stroke, Yepes says. One ...

Are Muramyl Peptides the Magic Bullet in Probiotics?

...me available when probiotic cells are fractured in the "lysing" process, which digests the cell wall. Eastern European researchers have been using the lysing technique for several decades, but the laboratory technique is barely on biotech manufacturing radar in the U.S. "Comparing a live probiotic and a l...
